Crap meals outI'd chosen to take my in-laws to one of my favourite restaurants, only to discover it had changed hands the week before. We waited half an hour to get menus. The waitress broke the cork in the wine we ordered. She got our order wrong. The food was luke-warm, mine was overcooked, the rest was undercooked. After waiting another 40 minutes for the last course, we were told that we couldn't have any as the chef had "forgotten to de-frost the puddings".
Let's just say they didn't get a tip. Tell us of your crap meals out.

Crap. Diluted.I stayed in Greece for a few days about 5 years back. It rained heavily the whole time. Went for a meal in a small local restaurant one evening, which was situated downhill from the main town. Ordered some wine, ordered some food, all very pleasant.
Well, it was until the torrential rain caused some kind of sewage overflow in the town, and a mix of rainwater and effluent came pouring down the hill. Half the restaurant staff were desperately trying to sweep the shitty water away from the door before it invaded the restaurant. The smell was, of course, phenomenal. Funnily enough, we left before the food came, despite the manager's promises of free wine if we stayed.
Actually, this story probably doesn't count as there technically wasn't a meal involved. Ho hum.
